Multi-domain spectral method for Kerr spacetimes: a hyperboloidal Teukolsky -mode solver for self-force computations

Brad Cownden, Rodrigo Panosso Macedo, Christiana Pantelidou +2

We solve the frequency-domain, -mode Teukolsky equation for the spin-weight Weyl scalar sourced by a point mass on a circular, equatorial orbit around a Kerr black…

Turbulent gravitational wakes

Giulio Taiocchi, Christiana Pantelidou, Miguel Zilhão

We construct turbulent gravitational wakes in asymptotically AdS spacetimes by solving the full non-linear Einstein equations in the characteristic formulation. Specifically, w…

Bilinear products and the orthogonality of quasinormal modes on hyperboloidal foliations

Marica Minucci, Rodrigo Panosso Macedo, Christiana Pantelidou +1

We explore the properties of bilinear products for black-hole quasinormal modes (QNMs) formulated on hyperboloidal foliations. We find that, although QNM solutions are smooth and f…

Transients in black hole perturbation theory

Jérémy Besson, Javier Carballo, Christiana Pantelidou +1

Black hole quasinormal modes arise as eigenmodes of a non-normal Hamiltonian and consequently they do not obey orthogonality relations with respect to commonly used inner products,…

Non-modal effects in black hole perturbation theory: Transient Superradiance

Javier Carballo, Christiana Pantelidou, Benjamin Withers

We study the non-modal stability of black hole spacetimes under linear perturbations. We show that large-amplitude growth can occur at finite time, despite asymptotic decay of line…

Gabriel Andres Piovano, Christiana Pantelidou, Jake Mac Uilliam +1

Extreme mass-ratio inspirals are among the key sources of gravitational waves for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna space-based gravitational-wave detector. Achieving sufficie…

The pseudospectra of black holes in AdS

Brad Cownden, Christiana Pantelidou, Miguel Zilhão

We study the stability of quasinormal modes (QNMs) in electrically charged black brane spacetimes that asymptote to AdS by means of the pseudospectrum. Methodologically, we adopt i…

Black hole excited states from broken translations in Euclidean time

Christiana Pantelidou, Benjamin Withers

We prepare an excited finite temperature state in SYM by means of a Euclidean path integral with a relevant deformation. The deformation explicitly breaks imaginary-ti…

Thermal three-point functions from holographic Schwinger-Keldysh contours

Christiana Pantelidou, Benjamin Withers

We compute fully retarded scalar three-point functions of holographic CFTs at finite temperature using real-time holography. They describe the nonlinear response of a holographic m…

Holographic Dissipation from the Symplectic Current

Aristomenis Donos, Polydoros Kailidis, Christiana Pantelidou

We develop analytic techniques to construct the leading dissipative terms in a derivative expansion of holographic fluids. Our basic ingredient is the Crnkovic-Witten symplectic cu…

Higgs/Amplitude Mode Dynamics From Holography

Aristomenis Donos, Christiana Pantelidou

Second order phase transitions are universally driven by an order parameter which becomes trivial at the critical point. At the same time, collective excitations which involve the…

Dissipation in Holographic Superfluids

Aristomenis Donos, Polydoros Kailidis, Christiana Pantelidou

We study dissipation in holographic superfluids at finite temperature and zero chemical potential. The zero overlap with the heat current allows us to isolate the physics of the co…
